So anyway this is the first I've heard of EN 60950-1 being superseded
by IEC/EN 62368-1 and I'm not familiar with EN 62368-1 at all.
You have a BIG surprise coming! I's very different and much larger.
When is that expected to happen?
It already exists, even as a second edition:
IEC 62368-1 ed2.0 (2014-02) Audio/video, information and communication
technology equipment - Part 1: Safety requirements
It also exists as EN 62368-1: Audio/video, information and communication
technology equipment - Part 1: Safety requirements (IEC 62368-1:2014,
modified)
Will that apply to the harmonized standards for the LVD?
Yes, but the dow is 2019-06-20, so it is unlikely to be made mandatory
by the Commission before then.
Is there a plan for a UL 62368-1 like there UL 60950-1 or maybe UL
will succumb and just use the IEC/EN 62368-1 as is?
There is, or will be, a UL version, with differences.
Five years is definitely not too long a period for getting up to speed
with the new standard, partly because it is still not stable; changes
are in the pipeline. And remember that the companies that sent people to
help produce the standard are many years ahead of those that didn't.
